A federal appeals court ruled Thursday that the NFL can be put on trial as part of Brian Flores' racial-discrimination lawsuit against the league and three of its teams, according to the Associated Press.

Brian Flores can proceed with his claims that he and other Black coaches in the NFL face discrimination after the 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Manhattan upheld Judge Valerie Caproni's ruling. Flores has claims against the Denver Broncos, New York Giants and Houston Texans .

Minnesota Vikings defensive coordinator Brian Flores sued the NFL for racial discrimination in 2022 and now his case will move forward in court.
